WFD 2023 / W4CVY / Portable lessons learned

Columbus Amateur Radio Club's 6th. annual WFD. We put all our eggs into one antenna and learned a few lessons. Have a backup antenna of the same type. We wasted a couple hours of set up time. We were on the air just as everything started. Whew! Come follow along with us. W4CVY 2O/GA

After replacing the 1:1 balun the antenna is back to normal. I will have an extra one on hand next time.

We had a great time this year. My favorite event of the year. I guess it's the cool weather.
Field Day 23 should be nice this year. Moving to a new location. Should have a video on it too. Take care. Steve - Ad4xt

I didn’t realize drones were noisy. Never been close to one. Enjoyed the video as always.

Like I said last night Steve I had watched some of your videos before and really enjoyed them. Wow. Delta loop portable! That's awesome. Subscribed and looking forward to more great videos. 73, Robert Burton KD4YDC
